Prerequisites

Step 1: Open the Cashiers Dashboard
In your dashboard, select Cashiers from the left side menu. The page displays a table of all existing cashier accounts with the following columns:| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | The cashier’s full name |
| Username | Their unique POS login identifier |
| Phone | Registered contact number |
| Status | ACTIVE or INACTIVE |
| Password | OK or MUST CHANGE |
Step 2: Edit Cashier Details
To update a cashier’s profile:- Click the options menu
...in the Actions column next to the cashier. - Select Edit.
- In the slide-out panel, update any of the following:
- First name or Last name
- Phone number
- Use the Active toggle at the bottom to instantly enable or disable their account access.
- Click Save changes.
Toggling a cashier to Inactive immediately prevents them from signing in on any POS device — no need to delete the account.
Step 3: Reset a Cashier’s Password
Use this when a cashier forgets their credentials or as part of a routine security rotation.- Click the options menu
...next to the cashier. - Select Reset password.
- Enter a New password of at least 8 characters in the modal.
- Click Reset password to confirm.
Step 4: Deactivate a Cashier
Use this when an employee leaves your business or you need to revoke their access immediately.- Click the options menu
...next to the cashier. - Select Deactivate (highlighted in red).
- A confirmation modal will appear:
“Deactivate cashier? [Username] will no longer be able to sign in on POS devices for this merchant.”
- Click the red Deactivate button to confirm.
